Those weren't open 3s... Brooks banked in a heave and FVV was well defended, again on a shot clock heave. They're just making everything. It happens.
FVV was wide open, Curry switched off him and nobody switched onto him. The majority of their 3's have been wide open after they just swing the ball around one time because the defense has sucked
We're probably talking about different FVV 3's (there were a bunch). The one I'm referring to had Buddy and Loon contesting while he was fading right, and he still made it lol.

At this point I think the warriors would be better off getting down by 30+ so Kerr isn't tempted to play Steph and Jimmy meaningless minutes in the 2nd half.
Totally. Let Knox, Key, Spencer, and TJD play 20+ minutes in the second half and let our greybeards get some extra rest for Friday. Maybe pass Kerr a note that FVV has been kinda hot and should be defended as such.

Re: Warriors vs Rockets - Game 5
If this gives the Rockets renewed confidence coming into Game 6 the Warriors are in trouble. Better trim this lead even if you concede this game.

Interestingly, he got hot when Hield started the last 2 games. Moody did an awesome job on him the first 3 games.

Dray said after game 4 that the Rockets will give their best punch in this game. Problem is we are not punching back.

Kerr has to figure out how to play against the zone.

I think we are past that stage. Even being up 3-2 after this game, if you cannot solve their zone defense or stop their offense, you are beyond being "in trouble".

Well the Warriors are complete trash on offense outside of Curry and Jimmy so if they aren't playing well we are one of the worst teams in the league. Curry looks tired or whatever tonight, Jimmy is still playing hurt. This is why they definitely need to concede this second half and hope that it helps those two be more ready in a couple days.

I blame the thread creator for jinxing it.
More seriously: experience may win the series, but when the young team gets hot, the old team gets crushed every time.

Just sit the vets already. No sense leaving them out there and risking injury.

we are terrible offensively - forcing Kerr to play more guards which ends up with bad defense and blow out. If we play Looney and Moody this would have been a ugly low score but close game.

Did anyone notice when Hield went baseline for that layup he looked to be pushed towards out of bounds and flipped up the ball and made the layup. I just don't get how the refs are allow this blatant amount of fouls to happen and what's bad is that Houston is far enough ahead to not have to do that.
